My friends and I left the house at 3:00am to drive the 45 minutes to the nearest "city". We had not slept at all due to other circumstances, but we were armed with our list, and the knowledge that Wal Mart was price matching everyone! No need to even shop at some of our regular stops....in fact this is this first year ever I did not even step foot into Target because, I price matched all their deals at Wal Mart while I was there. I did get my Cricut......and it is awesome! I did have people following me in the parking lot just for my cart (that was a first for me).
We ate Breakfast at Sam's....then off to Kohls. We had a wonderful time there, and got the girls such cute clothes for Christmas! Then to the mall where i had actually already purchased my stuff at Best Buy at 2:30 am online.....and it was just waiting for me to pick up. No lines no fuss! We got all our typical mall deals, and then I was home by noon.
I want to apologize to my gal Dorsey...who I was hoping to meet up with for lunch...it is always cool to get to meet one of your favorite bloggers....but I was exhausted, and could only text her a feeble apology. I finally got to sleep for about an hour this afternoon, and am looking forward to my pillow right now. I do have some funny Black Friday anecdotes that I will share tomorrow.
Yes, that is the back of my Honda Odyssey this morning....but it really isn't all mine. I did have a car full of some of my favorite frugal gal pals!

Glad you got the cricut! My niece was going to brave Walmart. She was not Walmart ready, I told her I would take her. But after she looked over the sales and truly figured out what she wanted to buy she decided to wait. She was so cute, "I am not ready to do Walmart". Even Hubby told her not to go alone take me and her dad with her or she would be taken out!
Those carts are few and far between at Walmart on Black Friday, and you can use them to block other people. Hubby had that happen, he could not believe it.
We stayed in, and I bought groceries later in the day.
Guess you were pretty lucky since a man was trampled at Walmart in NY. and a pregnant women miscarried because of injuries. at least your group got away safe.
Your devotion is very impressive! Hope you get to catch up on your sleep.
Well alright, well alright. I'm glad you got lotsa goodies. I did read about that poor man at the Walmart in NY and I caught a glimpse at the Walmart in our neck of the woods and people were pretty insane.
Don't sweat the missed lunch. I'll be down there again before you know it (probably) and we can meet up for lunch then.
Glad to hear you got some great deals!
Wow! See, I haven't shopped at all. Now I am feeling the pinch! Looks like a fun time!
Very impressive, and you made it sound easy! I didn't have the nerve to brave Walmart until much later in the day. Glad you had such great success!
